Hi,

How do I excecute a path directly ? Meaning for a demo I want to click on a button and it must access the path and go straight to my function, bypassing login etc.

Murray,  
If you mean to execute procedure from a generated page by pressing a button please read how to do it here:  
[url][http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/webmethods/wmsuites/wmsuite8-2\_fcs/ApplinX/8-2\_ApplinX/advdev/PageCustomization.htm#ButtonHyperExecutePath[/url]](http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/webmethods/wmsuites/wmsuite8-2_fcs/ApplinX/8-2_ApplinX/advdev/PageCustomization.htm#ButtonHyperExecutePath%5B/url%5D)

An independent page could accomplish this task as weel - see the example in CopmpositeDemo login page and the documentation  
[url][http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/webmethods/wmsuites/wmsuite8-2\_fcs/ApplinX/8-2\_ApplinX/advdev/PageCustomization.htm#ExternalLoginPg[/url]](http://techcommunity.softwareag.com/ecosystem/documentation/webmethods/wmsuites/wmsuite8-2_fcs/ApplinX/8-2_ApplinX/advdev/PageCustomization.htm#ExternalLoginPg%5B/url%5D)

Or, alternatively, use a service (connection pool) by configuring it to run to the first page of your function and waiting there. Setting the web app to use this service will get you to the functions first page upon starting an APX session.

Hope it helps.

Tanya
